FULL PACKER PRESS RELEASE: Another Jambo Submission: Just a reminder. It is only four Saturdays away from the Full Packer road trip to Utica for the much anticipated Roger McGuinn concert. Attendees are asked to present their $30 ticket fee before boarding Jambo's RTBC vehicle. A pre-concert reception will be held at Roc's Ranch where non-alcoholic beer will be served. Thank you.-Mr.Jambourine Man

FULL PACKER PRESS RELEASE: This just in from the AP wire. Roc and Jam duke it out at the Annual Full Packer Basketball Tournament during the Annual Full Packer Retreat at Lake Eaton. Jam floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee with an impressive goal over Roc. Even so, Roc reclaimed the championship albeit with an asterisk due to his nephew being the referee.

FULL PACKER PRESS RELEASE: Jambo received confirmation from Ranger Bill. The following is Ranger Bill's note to Jambo:

I would like the Full Packer Organization to know that I eagerly await their arrival at Lake Eaton the afternoon of September 25th. It will be my pleasure to store your kayaks in my garage while you ascend Seward Mountain.The Hiawatha Council of the Boy Scouts of America will be holding their annual Kayak Regatta on Lake Eaton during your absence, so the extra kayaks will come in handy since not all the participants have one. My only wish is that I could join you on your ambitious mission.

Godspeed and a safe journey,
Ranger Bill

FULL PACKER NEWS FLASH!!!!

Dated: Tuesday, September 18, 2007: 12:54pm - A COSMOS SIGHTING!! Rocketman has just reported that Cosmos will indeed be joining the expedition team. Cosmos appeared at Roc's place of employment this morning and was deeply apologetic regarding his absenteeism from the PreExpedition meeting this past Sunday. Because of his remorse and under the stringent absolution rule (Section 132.45.32b, c and h) as stated in the Full Packer Manifesto, he is forgiven. Welcome aboard and God's speed Cosmos!

FULL PACKER PRESS RELEASE: In a recent kayaking expedition, Redwood and Capitanious paddled the waters of the Bog River Flow. During that 3 day, 2 night trip, lines were cast into the early morning and evening clear waters of Hutchins Pond. As a result, the sounds and smells of sizzling bread-battered bass were evident throughout the area that evening. It is this reporters hope to relive this special moment next Friday evening while tenting along the shores of Lake Lila. So plan on packing your rod and real. For now, enjoy this time of preparation, as Rocketman always asks; “are you living this?” A very profound statement and very good advice.

FULL PACKER PRESS RELEASE: The Full Packer Report continually strives to meet the high standards of journalistic integrity, and so, the executive staff of the FPR has decided to pull one of the four Mt. Adams video submissions.

While the stress of the long-trail may give way to colorful and base pedestrian vocabulary, the FPR does not have to follow suit. And so, going forward, all submissions will be screened and no submission to the FPR will be accepted if the contents lean towards or outright contain a vulgar nature.

As Captain of the Full Packers, I can not control the quality of the language that finds its way to the ears of others; however, I can control the content of this BLOG.
